We made an unexpected stop on our way back home to Iowa, and I’m so glad we did! I wish we would have had more time to walk through the grounds, but we were on a time constraint. We absolutely loved the cave walk!! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, and it was fun to learn and experience something new.
Great tour and beautiful cave, so tempted to explore more of it �. Went with my toddler son, not the best place for littles, no touching allowed and lots of stairs. He was in awe by the cave though. It's a good state park and it does have plenty to do outside the cave too.
We had a family of 5. We all had a great time. Tour was great as well as everything else. As far as us paying so much that was over priced but it was fun and the experience was a good one.
We went on Easter with my 2 year old grandson expecting a special Easter egg tour for kids. It was the usual tour with beautiful eggs in the cave. Although the eggs were beautiful, the usual tour is too long and wordy for little kids. We were expecting something more child oriented. � Confusing advertising.
